I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This clue might be a double definition.

'request drinks' is the first definition.
'order' can be an answer for 'request' (an order is a request from someone in authority). I'm not sure about the 'drinks' bit.

'sequence' is the second definition.
(I know that sequence is a more specific form of the action order)

'in' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for order that I've seen before include "association" , "peace" , "Command harmony" , "Mr Speaker's plea" , "Right arrangement" .)
